Haute Dogs Recipe Book

There’s been a bit of a backlash against hot dogs in recent years, and we’re here to say we don’t like it. Sure there are some crappy cylindrical meats out there, but there are also some dogs that can be made with quality ingredients all the way around.

Haute Dogs: Recipes for Delicious Hot Dogs, Buns, and Condiments aims to elevate our friend the frank with 168 pages of mouth-watering recipes inspired by everything from south-of-the-border BBQ to Japanese fusion to modern food-cart cuisine. Texas-based author Russell van Kraayenburg warms you up with some hot dog history before showing you how to handcraft your own dogs, buns, and condiments. So put those pends down, hot dog obituary writers, there’s still a lot of win left in the ol’ wiener. [Purchase]
